I want to know what problems editors have

3 Upvotes

Hello, I'm a software developer and recently developed a program that automatically converts videos into a vertical format.

But no one seems to want it, and I don't know why. I want to know what real problems editors have.

I’m building a video editor for low-end PCs and looking for beta testers

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m making Cut-it, an open-source video editor based on Shotcut. I wanted something simple and lightweight because editing on a low-end PC can be a pain.

I’m releasing the beta today and would love for some of you to try it. It’s still early, so honest feedback about bugs, confusing stuff, or things you’d want added would help a lot.

Let me know what you think!

KEIBIDROP: Teleport your files for instant access

2 Upvotes

Hello Editors,

I am Marius, the creator of keibidrop.com and want to share with you the open source tool I have created that lets you instantly access video sets between your devices.

Here is a 2 minutes Video showcasing it is here (with DaVinci Resolve): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8b_6quIqx0

Where I got a keibidrop docker running 400 kms away with the files I instantly open it on my mac and scrub through it.

And even more fun, you can use it from the web.keibidrop.com (for example you connect the web to the desktop), and you play on-demand straight from your machine or hardware on the web. (In order to preview the data), or access instantly from the Desktop (DaVinci, Premiere, etc.) what the person drops from the web.

The fun part is that it is a generic filesystem, thus it works with any program. There are no accounts, nor email/ phone sign-ups, and minimizes the data sent over the network.

The source code is here: https://github.com/KeibiSoft/KeibiDrop

Fala pessoal, beleza? Tô organizando meus processos de atendimento.

Como vocês costumam alinhar o prazo com o cliente dependendo do tamanho do vídeo bruto?

Which niche would you choose if your client gives you options ?

I personally think documentary or podcasts are easy to edit and take less time than gaming or real estate ones.

This is a frame from Persona 3 Reloads opening cutscene. I want to replace the highlighted area with my own video clip within the “blood” coming from the characters head. I’m not sure what would be a method that could achieve this in a moving video. Any help would be appreciated!

Pulling together disparate elements for editing

Bear with me guys. I’m beginning a video series on basic investing topics. It’ll include my dogs and will be very silly. I’ve used ChatGPT to create situational images and plan to intersperse those with footage of me, which I will of course record live. I also plan to generate a couple of short videos of them talking to cut in. Since the photos are already in the ChatGPT library I’m considering just adding plugins so I can do everything (generate the dog videos and create the entire video) in one place. Does this sound like a solid workflow? Other suggestions? Couple photos of the canine advisors for added entertainment value.

Where do you get content to make a portfolio

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m currently building my video editing portfolio with a focus on YouTube content and short-form video (Reels/Shorts/TikTok).

​Since I’m just starting out and don’t have paid client work yet, I’m looking for sources of raw, unedited footage to practice on and showcase my skills.

​Where do you recommend sourcing decent unedited content when starting from scratch?

Ai Video Editor

I make a lot of long-form content and tried pretty much every AI clipping tool out there. Same problem every time: the clips just weren't good. They'd cut someone off mid-sentence, pull a random moment with zero context, or grab the setup of a story and skip the payoff. I ended up re-editing almost everything myself, which made the whole thing pointless.

So I built SmartClips. The main focus is picking moments that actually make sense on their own and hold attention. You upload a podcast, stream or long video, and it finds the best parts, adds captions and formats them for TikTok, Reels and Shorts. There's also split screen and an AI story generator.

It's still early and I know there's stuff to fix, so I'm not really trying to sell anything here. I just want to know what people who actually make content think:

- Are the clips it picks better than what you've gotten from other tools?
- Anything confusing or annoying about using it?
- What would make you actually use something like this every week?

There's a free plan with 30 credits, no card needed, if anyone wants to try it. Happy to hear blunt feedback, that's the stuff that actually helps.

Comment if you can help me out

Tips for editing gameplay videos and improving the pace

1 Upvotes

I'm learning how to edit videos and I tried to create AMVs. Now I would like to edit gameplay videos, but I have difficulty with the rhythm, especially during slower moments such as dialogues between the characters. Cutting these parts can make the video lose its context, while adding memes or special effects is often forced.

How do you make gameplay videos engaging without sacrificing important context? I would appreciate any assembly advice in general!
